First karyotype description of the species of Adenomera Steindachner, 1867 (Anura, Leptodactylidae) in the "thomei" clade
COMPARATIVE CYTOGENETICS(2022)
摘要
The genus Adenomera Steindachner, 1867 currently comprises 29 nominal species, some of which are sug-gested to be cryptic species complexes. The present study was carried out with specimens of the "thomei' clade that encompasses three taxa distributed in the Atlantic Forest biome: Adenomera thomei Almeida et Angulo, 2006, Adenomera sp. L., and Adenomera sp. M. We used classical cytogenetics to describe the diploid number and karyomorphology of these three species collected in two different locations in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Our results revealed the diploid number 2n = 24 (FN = 34) with two pairs of metacentric chromosomes (pairs 1 and 5), three pairs of submetacentric chromosomes (pairs 2, 3, and 4), and seven pairs of telocentric chromosomes (pairs 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12). Further morphological, bio-acoustic, and cytogenetic data (C-banding and AgNor) are needed to better delineate the lineages within the "thomei' clade.
